What can you even do with a baby?
Speculative investment.
No idea. Afaik it’s just a huge money pit.
Stewed, roasted, baked, or boiled; and I make no doubt that it will equally serve in a fricassee, or a ragout.
And that's to say nothing of the skin, which will make admirable gloves for ladies, and summer boots for fine gentlemen.
Ragù isn't French, but nice try.
Ragù is Italian, ragout is in fact French
$1000 is a rather modest proposal!
Trade it for beer, duh
Will it blend?
Apparently you can paint houses with them, but you'd need a lot more than just one baby
How hard are you throwing these babies???
“l'll give you an idea. Why as a pup, l myself fetched $30,000 on the black market. That was 1954 dollars. Now, for 50 grand, l'll track him and l'll find him. And the people that took him, l'll kick their butts. No extra charge.”
Sad and horrible things have been done with babies. Don't go looking for pictures or videos on the internet.
With the father's history of domestic abuse I just hope this couple doesn't produce another baby for the purpose of selling it.
